I did the cover art to Sabbath’s “Master of Reality”; Tang™ sommelier; Alignment: Neutral Good; “Ad astra per iced quad venti nonfat lattes”; 鬼手佛心
other than 2016 and 2020 (which were so close that neither got a honeymoon period) this is what the opposition party does during the first months after *every* election it loses
people do not hear these focus-grouped messages because they are zero relative entropy: they are intended not to conflict whatsoever with what the listener already believes, and thus literally convey no information.
This is such a crucial point. Democrats are eschewing picking fights with Trump in favor of carefully focus-grouped messages. The implicit assumption is that those messages will reach people. They won't, because they're inauthentic and boring.

WATSON: I say, Holmes, and what of this bit of cigar ash on the banister? Does it come by some distinctive provenance, by chance?
ME: (still not revealing I got time traveled here from a "Shitty Hats" costume party) No this looks fucked up for sure.

I've read a lot of rock/country/hiphop musician bios over the last 5 years and to generalize:
1. The autobios/memoirs are best (especially when the artist spills tea) but beware legacy curation
2. The ex-wife memoirs are 🔥 but beware score settling
3. The 3rd party bios tend to be boring/fanboy
